Last Updated: Tuesday, 1 May 201222 Market Listings
This page contains listings for publications that accept and publish material that I deem suitable for a mature audience only and may contain, although not necessarily so, references to erotic content, that do not include fiction written by the publisher(s), editor(s), or staff. Included listings can be markets for Pro, Paying, 4theLuv, Anthology, Book Publisher, and Humor; plus Contests. This page is intended solely for mature writers. Read the complete guidelines carefully before submitting. Try to read at least one issue to get a feel for what is wanted. If in doubt contact the editor. US ($), UK (£), or EU (€) currency are used unless otherwise noted. Addresses are US unless noted otherwise. These listings are provided in good faith with the belief the info is correct, but Ralan.com accepts no responsibility for any errors or omissions in them. The fact that an entry is listed here is no guarantee that said entity will ever publish anything. Contact with any editor or publisher is at the contributor's own risk. Ralan.com encourages all potential contributors to do a web search of the editor's and/or publisher's name before submitting to them. Each visitor assumes all risk associated with the use or misuse of the information here.
